Chapter 181: Bringing Computer Prices Down to Below 2000! (Part 1/2)

“Congratulations, Brother Feng!” Su Xiaoli, holding a bouquet of flowers that had already been prepared, came to Tang Feng.

“Thank you!” Tang Feng took the flowers and took the opportunity to pull her into his embrace.

Thunderous applause erupted at the scene!

The applause lasted for almost ten minutes before it finally stopped.

“Everyone has worked hard! To celebrate the successful completion of this project, I’m treating everyone to a meal! In addition, I’m giving each person a red packet of five thousand yuan!” Tang Feng announced generously!

It should be noted that it is now 2003, and five thousand yuan is not a small amount for the average worker.

Especially for these doctoral students who have not yet entered the workforce, it is a significant sum.

Everyone couldn’t help but cheer and leap for joy!

Not only could they successfully complete their doctoral dissertations, but they could also earn money!

Such good fortune was hard to find even with a lantern.

Tang Feng had already arranged for someone to book a banquet hall at a nearby restaurant.

After all, with so many people dining together, a private room would not suffice.

Wang Yuanchao and Jiang Guangming were also among those invited.

Soon, everyone arrived at the restaurant.

Tang Feng and people like Wang Yuanchao were at one table.

The other doctoral students involved in the project also took their seats according to the list on the dining table.

Once everyone was seated, Tang Feng stood up and delivered a few opening remarks.

He first thanked everyone who supported the project.

He especially thanked Su Xiaoli sitting beside him.

During this time, Su Xiaoli had been busily helping him out, taking care of him with utmost attention, which truly moved him.

Su Xiaoli, hearing his heartfelt words, blushed terribly.

But inside, she was exceptionally happy.

After Tang Feng finished his opening remarks, Wang Yuanchao and others also said a few words.

Then they began the meal.

“Tang Feng, are you also planning to hold a product launch?” Wang Yuanchao asked while eating.

“Yes,” Tang Feng nodded, saying, “But I plan to do it in a few days. Once the first batch of products is ready, I will hold the product launch and sign contracts with computer manufacturers at the same time.”

“How much will this computer memory be sold for?” Jiang Guangming asked with interest.

“I can’t say for now. But it will definitely be much cheaper than similar products,” Tang Feng answered.

“It seems the overall price of computers will drop significantly. The spring of the computer industry has already arrived,” Yang Lei couldn’t help but express his admiration.

“Computers will soon become a necessity for ordinary people, just like TVs and refrigerators in their homes. Of course, to have a computer in every household across the country is still a long way off. However, I believe as computer prices continue to fall, computers will definitely enter thousands of households,” Tang Feng appeared confident.

“It seems that China Telecom and China Netcom also need to hurry up with their arrangements. Otherwise, it’s a big problem if people buy computers but can’t get online,” Jiang Guangming said.

“Yes,” Tang Feng nodded, saying, “And the current internet speed compared to abroad is also a lot slower. I plan to take some time to visit Xuzhou and have a talk with the president of Huawei, to see if we can cooperate on a technical level. This way, we can promote the rapid upgrade of network communication equipment, allowing people to use faster and cheaper internet.”

“Huawei has been growing rapidly these years. However, compared to those foreign communication equipment giants, the gap is still quite large. If you can provide technical support, it would be like adding wings to a tiger for Huawei,” Wang Yuanchao laughed.

“Anyway, I’ll go to Xuzhou to meet with President Ren first,” Tang Feng said.

“Come! Let’s drink to the success of the computer memory project!” Yang Lei took the initiative to stand up with his glass.

Tang Feng and the others also stood up.

After clinking glasses, everyone drank up!

The doctoral students around them were incredibly envious of this scene!

Their eyes were filled with envy!

They wondered when they could become physics bigwigs like Wang Yuanchao and Jiang Guangming.

Of course, for Tang Feng, they only had admiration.

Because they were very clear in their hearts that Tang Feng was a once-in-a-thousand-years genius!

Even if they spent their entire lives working hard, they could not achieve the success Tang Feng had now!

Keep in mind, Tang Feng is just a first-year student in the mathematics department at Jingcheng University!

Being so young and having achieved such high accomplishments, if it were them, they would have been exceedingly proud!

For Tang Feng, they had nothing but admiration and anticipation.

They looked forward to Tang Feng making more research achievements, thereby elevating the level of China’s physics community!

By then, they would definitely benefit from his success!

The meal lasted for two hours.

After finishing the meal, Tang Feng bid farewell to Wang Yuanchao and the others, taking Su Xiaoli back home.

Perhaps because he hadn’t returned for half a month, Tang Feng felt somewhat unfamiliar with every plant and tree in the yard.

But he quickly adapted.

He sat down on the sofa in the living room.

After a while, Su Ming, Ning Xiao, and others appeared in front of him in a swarm.

“Boss, you look a lot more haggard after not seeing you for half a month,” Su Ming observed Tang Feng while speaking.

“Do I? I think I’m in pretty good shape. But indeed, it’s been quite hard during this period,” Tang Feng responded.

“Xiaoli, I’ve missed you so much!” Ning Xiao approached her with a big hug.

“I missed you guys too. But at least we could text and chat on UU during the day,” Su Xiaoli laughed.

“Boss, how’s it going? Did the project complete successfully?” Zhang Hao asked eagerly.

“It has successfully passed rigorous testing. If nothing goes wrong, mass production can be realized in a week,” Tang Feng answered.

“That’s really great! Boss, you’re truly awesome!” Zhang Hao couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.

“Alright! Stop flattering me here! Wait for me to rest a bit, and I’ll cook dinner for you guys tonight,” Tang Feng offered.

“No!” Su Xiaoli immediately intervened, saying, “You’ve been busy for so many days, you must rest properly for a few days. I’ll cook dinner tonight!”

“We can help too,” Ning Xiao and the others quickly offered.

“We haven’t been home for so long, and there are no groceries. You guys chat here, and I’ll go to the nearby supermarket with Ning Xiao and the others,” Su Xiaoli said, then left with them.

“Be safe on the road!” Tang Feng reminded them.

Su Xiaoli didn’t look back but made an OK gesture.

“Zi Hang, how’s the situation with Jianbao Network recently?” Tang Feng asked with a smile.

“Well, its development momentum is quite good. However, Yiwugo has already noticed us, so they have increased their advertising efforts. Moreover, it’s said that Yiwugo’s parent company, America’s eBay, plans to invest ten billion yuan in Yiwugo, aiming to capture more market share in the shortest time,” Zhu Zihang answered.
